Myotomy
Patients with Achalasia suffer from difficulty eating or drinking due to relaxation failure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES).
A minimally invasive procedure, helps to open these muscles to allow passage of solids and liquids from the esophagus into the stomach.
​
The procedure tends to take about 90 minutes and it is done with small incisions, under general anesthesia.
​
It provides definite treatment and it is a great alternative for failed endoscopic procedures.
